The federal government says it will reciprocate travel restrictions by countries that have not opened their airspace to Nigeria.
Minister of Aviation, Senator Hadi Sirika disclosed this on Thursday, August 20, at the media briefing of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 in Abuja.
According to him, “On the list of countries (that are banned), we are working on the comprehensive list, but the main one that came up is when the EU opened their borders effective 1st July, Nigeria was among the list of 54 countries that were not allowed to enter the EU.
To my understanding, as the situation changes, they are going to look at the list and change it. But so far, we don’t have any contrary information to that first one that Nigeria is banned from going to the EU.
So, as we open our airspace, we are going to apply the issue of reciprocity to those (EU) countries.”
